Shopping for presents.
Well, it looks like the holidays are almost over, but I still have one more present to buy; my granddaughter's birthday is this month. Fortunately, the invention of Amazon has drastically simplified buying presents for grandkids.
It wasn't so long ago that buying presents for grandkids was a difficult and time-consuming challenge that involved..... Driving to a store to buy a present, buy some wrapping paper, buy a box to put the present in, after all, it's not like a guy living in a camper is going to keep rolls of wrapping paper and cardboard boxes lying around. Wrap it all up, drive to a post office to mail it, stand in line for 20 minutes, hoping the overstressed postal employee doesn't whip out a gun and start firing. Get the package weighed, pay several dollars in postage, and then drive home and wait two or three weeks, hoping the package actually gets there on time, and in one piece.
That was the old days, but now, I call my daughter to see what my granddaughter would like for her birthday, look it up on Amazon, press a couple of buttons, and the day after tomorrow, the present is waiting on their doorstep.... It makes shopping for presents almost fun.

I stuck my head out the door this morning, saw nothing but the usual clouds, and went back to bed.
This fifth wheel has found a nice, peaceful place in the trees to boondock for a while.
Vans are everywhere nowadays, and this one has found a great boondocking spot with a view of the mountains.
